7 roles
Vocal range top: G4 Vocal range bottom: A2 East Side Flower Shop clerk in Skid Row. He is a somewhat insecure, a little naïve, somewhat put‐upon orphan florist’s clerk, plant aficionado – and our hero. He’s sweet and well‐meaning, somewhat shy, awkward; lacking in social skills. Seymour becomes the owner of the carnivorous plant, Audrey II. He has a whole lot of insecurity going on, but as the show progresses and the plant grows more powerful, so does his confidence.
Vocal range top: G4 Vocal range bottom: G2 An actor/vocalist located offstage. The voice is that of a conniving, street-smart 'villain.' A funky Rhythm and Blues voice is best.
Vocal range top: D5 Vocal range bottom: G#3 Bleached‐blond, Billie‐Dawn‐like, secret love of Seymore’s life. she is honest and attractive, has very low self‐ esteem, dresses a little trashy, attracts the wrong guys, has big dreams, and is self‐sacrificing. Mushnik’s flower shop. Lacking in education and self‐esteem, she suffers from feelings of hopelessness at her situation in life (in a cheery sort of way), including her abusive relationship with her boyfriend, Orin Scrivello.
Skid Row Street Urchins (3) Vocal range top: F5 Vocal range bottom: Ab3 Crystal, Ronnette and Chiffon are street urchins, acting as the occasional Greek Chorus. Young, hip, and smart, these girls are the only ones who have a grip on reality. Together, they are a top notch 50s/60s girl group (Chiffons, Ronnettes, Dixie Cups, Supremes, Blossoms, Crystals). They are our story tellers and very much drive the action. The most dance and movement in the show.
Vocal range top: F4 Vocal range bottom: G2 The seasoned owner of the failing East Side flower shop and Seymour's nosy boss. He is profit-driven, greedy, and manipulative.
Vocal range top: G4 Vocal range bottom: G2 An egotistical dentist with a passion for leather and sadistic tendencies. Audrey's abusive boyfriend, who is targeted by Seymour.
